Clear EEPROM is grayed out after DFU is connected about qmk_toolbox HOT 3 CLOSED

Clearing EEPROM is not supported on Toolbox with STM32 devices.

Hello @tzarc , thanks for quick reply. I don't know much about the STM32. You make me know more.

I want to find a way to conveniently reset the configuration if possible.

I noticed it will reset the keymap configuration to defaults if I use a firmware from different provider.
For example, I flash the via offical firmware, load my saved layout; and later, I flash my custom firmware, the keymap configuration will be reset to defaults. However, it won't reset if I re-compile my custom firmware with modifications and flash it again.

However, the above steps seems too complex (need two firmware from different providers). It would be appreciated if you have any other ideas.

Hello,
I find a way to make it.

QMK provides a keycode QK_CLEAR_EEPROM for clearing the EEPROM:

the VIA web app also supports this. By assigning this keycode to a key, it successfully reset the configuration.
